Did you create another way to play Azul? If so, how do I join? I joined BGA about two months ago. When I leave rows open, the next set of tiles are exactly what I didn’t need time and time again but what my opponent needs. It’s as if my opponent has someone looking out for them. I believe it’s rigged. I read that people who paid and are premium members get this special treatment but, I paid for the year… before I saw this pattern.

This thread was for the subject of bots in Azul, not joke topics.

This is a strange question, and quite disconnected from the rest of your post. I don't get it.

Premium members get to start tables at premium games. Anybody can join an open table once created. That's about the extent of the special treatment premium members get. Oh, and a spiffy little yellow-orange ribbon on their avatars. Oh, and (grumble) more factions in one specific game, TI4.

Anything else you read, about premium members getting better dice rolls, or (somehow) better tiles in Azul, is completely unfounded.

Azul is not rigged. There is a lot of strategy to it. That's all it is.

And in the last week you've played 173 times and won 81 of them. That hardly seems like a rigged playing field to me.

Sure. Why not believe that your opponent is better than you instead?

You must also have read that the Earth is flat, that Superman was born in Krypton, that Communism will save the world, that Communism will destroy the world... or that there is NO special treatment for premium members, because it has been written hundreds of times.
